Requires order of restitution to child of parent or guardian killed by drunk driver.

This bill (A 340) requires courts to order restitution payments to children who lose a parent or guardian due to a drunk driving incident. It amends New Jersey's vehicular homicide law (N.J.S.2C:11-5) to mandate that when a defendant is convicted of reckless vehicular homicide while driving under the influence (violating N.J.S.39:4-50), the court must order restitution to the child victim. The restitution covers financial losses resulting from the death and is part of the sentencing process, alongside other penalties like license suspension and imprisonment. The bill directly affects children of victims and drunk drivers convicted under these provisions.
